Maybe, but if it does ever happen, we're still very much in the embryo stage. Like, behind VR or at the level of 1990's-era game streaming services.

What was most telling to me was even Hasbro seemingly chose not to chase the fad with Magic: the Gathering. Depressingly, it was presumably because even NFTs would be more friendly to players than their tightly-controlled market.
